Abstract

Sensor (100) comprises a heating element (108), one or more sensor elements (110, 112) and a fluid that surrounds the heating element and the sensor elements. The heater element generates an isothermal convection flow in the fluid so that if heater and sensor elements are arranged relative to a rotation axis, the sensors detection rotational acceleration or velocity by the isothermal field reaching them.
